Faith

You’re Invited to a Historic First in the Temecula Valley!

Join us for the FIRST-EVER Armenian Church Divine Liturgy (Holy Mass) to be celebrated in the Temecula Valley. Everyone is welcome. You do not have to be Armenian to participate. The homily (sermon) will be delivered in both Armenian and English.

This special Divine Liturgy will commemorate the Epiphany and the Baptism of Christ, observed on the Sunday closest to the Feast Day according to the Old Julian Calendar, which is still used in the Old City of Jerusalem. The service will include the traditional Blessing of the Water, and all attendees are welcome to take blessed water home following the service.

Come experience a centuries-old liturgy in its authentic form, rich with beautiful hymns, sacred chanting, and incense. For those unfamiliar, the closest comparison is the traditional Catholic Latin Mass, offering a deeply reverent and timeless worship experience.

Football fans are welcome too! Although the Divine Liturgy will coincide with the LA Rams vs. Chicago game, you can always say a small prayer for your team—perhaps the fragrant incense will carry your hopes straight to heaven.

Nature

Get out and enjoy some sun and natural beauty this weekend.

Southeast of Temecula Valley Wine Country in the Agua Tibia Wilderness, the Dripping Springs Trail offers great exercise and is considered a moderate to hard hike. There are campgrounds and outdoor enthusiasts can hike to their comfort level and turn around without having to complete the entire 15.8 miles of trails. Hikers will be treated to vistas that include views of rolling vineyards in the distance along with nearby Vail Lake. Shade is in short supply on these trails, so summer is not an ideal time to hike.  Dogs on leashes are welcome. Adventure Pass required.

Location:

^{Dripping Springs Trail Forest Rte 8S07 - Dripping Springs CG 38814, CA-79 Temecula, CA 92592. (760) 788 - 0250.}
